Comparison of Interface Pressures and Subjective Comfort of Pressure-Relieving Overlays on the Operating Table for Healthy Volunteers

(1) Background: Pressure ulcers in the hospital setting occurring within 72 h after surgery are called perioperative pressure injuries. The aim of this study was to provide data for the prevention of perioperative pressure injuries following the use of pressure-relieving overlays by measuring the in...

description (1) Background: Pressure ulcers in the hospital setting occurring within 72 h after surgery are called perioperative pressure injuries. The aim of this study was to provide data for the prevention of perioperative pressure injuries following the use of pressure-relieving overlays by measuring the interface pressures and subjective comfort. (2) Methods: This study is based on a repeated measures design. The subjects included 30 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 57 years. Interface pressures of the sacrum and both heels were measured in the supine position, and the subjective comfort was evaluated with visual analog scale after applying polyurethane foam, gel pad, and egg crate foam for relief. (3) Results: The pressures in the sacrum and both heels were the lowest with polyurethane foam, and the subjective comfort was the highest. (4) Conclusions: Inexpensive polyurethane foam with satisfactory pressure relief is recommended as an overlay for surgical patients.
